After Su Mo agreed, Dress introduced the details of the commission.
Listening to it, the overall process was no different from in the ga; the place was still the sa place, and the work was still the sa work.
But the ti it should have happened, and the people who should have participated, were completely different from Su Mo's mory.
This is the effect of world line changes.
Since entering the Dawn Realm, he has made quite a few changes to the original plot.
The escape of "Dr. Chen."
Nuobai's early retirent.
The death of Elder Tang.
The encounter with Audiana.
The interception mission of [Mad Sand]...
What seems like nothing earth-shattering, but that's how the butterfly effect is—a tiny disturbance can lead to drastic changes downstream.
It can be expected that as he continues to influence this world, world line changes will beco more frequent and intense.
So events might happen at tis they shouldn't, involving people they shouldn't involve.
Or things that should have happened just won't occur, replaced by things that shouldn't have happened.
The ultimate result is that the Dawn Realm slowly drifts away from the original ga trajectory, becoming drastically different and increasingly unfamiliar to Su Mo.
This is unavoidable because this is the ever-changing reality, not a ga with fixed programming.
So, Dress's phone call was not just about a commission; it was a warning for Su Mo.
He needs to prepare in advance for the world line changes.
...
After the call, Su Mo returned to the room and said, "Dongdong, get ready to work."
For this commission, he planned to bring Dongdong along.
First, the companions were relatively unfamiliar, and having more familiar people ant more support.
Second, to let Dongdong quickly beco familiar with the commission process and soon be able to handle things independently.
Dongdong had always been active, having been cooped up for days, and couldn't hold back anymore. She pointed her Dragon Steel Baseball Bat towards the door: "Charge!!!"
This ti, including Su Mo, Dress recruited a total of 15 rcenaries.
Among them, 13 belonged to a rcenary Corps called "Thunderclap," and Su Mo and Dongdong were the two additional helpers.
Dress was quite sincere, to help Su Mo integrate quickly, he specially arranged everyone to et at a bar to get acquainted first.
Su Mo drove Dongdong to the bar, entered the private room, and found it already full of people.
Sitting in the main seat in the center was Dress, a black man with dreadlocks, wearing hip-hop style clothes, rapping into a microphone.
Don't be fooled by this unserious appearance, Dress is not just about singing and dancing rap.
He is a well-known big interdiary on the sa level as Audiana, backed by the Iron Blood Alliance, rich in social resources, and with countless connections.
Dress is naturally familiar with everyone; seeing Su Mo enter, he put down the microphone, picked up two glasses of wine, and walked over: "Hey yo, Old Su, been waiting for you a long ti, have a drink."
He handed a glass to Su Mo, then looked at Dongdong: "Oh, so this is the helper you're bringing along? Not at drinking age yet, huh?"
Dongdong tiptoed and snatched the glass of wine from Dress's hand, downed the entire glass of tequila, and flipped the glass upside down on the table after finishing: "I've been drinking since I was 10, who are you looking down on?"
"Good! I like this girl's temperant!" Dress laughed heartily, extending his hand to Dongdong.
The two of them bumped thumbs, clapped hands, and tapped fists, displaying street cred with effortless skill.
Dress gestured behind him: "Old Su, that bald guy over there is Old Sun, the leader of the Thunderclap rcenary Corps, get to know him, I've got a couple more commissions to coordinate."
"Take care." Su Mo escorted Dress to the door.
After Su Mo returned, "Old Sun" stood up to shake his hand and said: "I'm Sun Min. I heard Brother Su Mo is a Mad Corpse Blood Code Carrier? Mind if I ask what level?"
Su Mo's abilities were too diverse, with three combat-type blood codes alone, not to ntion implanted artificial bodies.
These peculiarities couldn't be exposed, so he usually only claid to be a "Mad Corpse Blood Code Carrier" to outsiders.
Faced with Sun Min's inquiry, Su Mo didn't hide: "High Tier of Awakening."
The surrounding rcenaries nodded unconsciously, and Sun Min smiled and said: "Most Blood Code Carriers stop at the Middle Tier of Awakening, Brother Su Mo honing his blood code to the High Tier is quite a talent."
Su Mo smiled: "Advancing small tiers is manageable; crossing tiers is a big hurdle. Let's talk about my talents if I ever reach the 'Ascension Level.'"
Sun Min nodded and looked at Dongdong: "What's your helper's ability?"
Dongdong chid in: "I have artificial implants, left arm and spine, both at Ordinary Managent Level 3."
The rcenaries looked Dongdong up and down, with so condescension in their eyes.
A long-haired man quipped: "Only modified an arm and a spine, and at the lowest end, Ordinary Managent Level 3, not much different from having a regular body, huh?"
"We've modified at least six or seven parts, using mostly Ordinary Managent Level 2 artificial bodies, with so at Level 1. Teaming up with us, your strength doesn't quite match, does it?"
Dongdong, being hot-tempered, was not pleasant at all: "Think you're great just because you have more modifications? Blah blah blah, one would think you have a full Apocalypse-level Artificial Body, aren't you all just at Ordinary Managent Level, acting so high and mighty?"
The long-haired man wasn't pleased and his face soured: "Damn, a shorty with a sharp tongue, huh?"
"Bang!"
Dongdong swung and shattered a tableful of bottles, pointed at the long-haired man, and snapped: "You *Civilized Border* say I'm short again, I dare you!"
"Shit, now she's cursing, really fucking arrogant." The long-haired man looked at Sun Min, glaring, "Brother Sun, can I hit her?"
Dongdong also looked at Su Mo: "Boss, don't stop when I pound him later."
Su Mo and Sun Min exchanged glances, saying nothing, both seeing the humor in each other's eyes.
Since they're going to work together, they naturally have to test each other's limits.
Sun Min didn't want anyone in the team dragging them down.
Su Mo was personally recruited by Dress, and as a High Tier Blood Code Carrier, there's no need for testing.
But this pink-haired little girl touted as Su Mo's helper, yet her level of body modification is unconvincing, she'll need to show so skill to put everyone at ease.
Su Mo had the sa thought.
This commission, with most of the people from the Thunderclap rcenary Corps, he and Dongdong were outsiders wanting to fit in, they need to show sothing convincing.
If they don't trust Dongdong, it's easy, solve it the rcenary way.
Su Mo stepped back to the corner, instructing Dongdong: "Just a point."
Sun Min also looked at the long-haired man: "Wang Wei, just a point."
The Thunderclap rcenaries spread out, giving the two fighters ample space.
Dongdong kicked the table aside, raised her chin, and waved her baseball bat, telling the empty-handed Wang Wei: "Hurry and find sothing handy, don't co crying later saying I bullied you with a weapon."
Wang Wei sneered, waving his hands, two curved combat blades sprung from under his wrists, obviously implanted artificial bodies.
"Kid, Brother here has a bad temper, don't go crying your nose, okay?"
